It is also cold/rainy here. The temp's been dropping steadily all day. brr, winter!
I'm waiting for G. to decide to come to get me as the shuttles aren't running and I don't feel like taking two city buses home in the rain. We're going out for margaritas later. yumm.
dammit, can't believe it's not thursday. I better have more focus tomorrow b/c I do have quite a bit of work to do.

John - you dyed your hair white blonde?! NO, I did not see that. (Please tell me you have a photo, preferably with dark roots showing, sort of as if you were some really screwed up version of Madonna.)
Margaritas YUM. WANT. Instead all I have is a bunch of cookies and fudge that I made... too much. Neighbors are getting treats tonight.
Stay warm Sam! (Er, and everyone else, of course.)

I'm reconsidering the nap, now that Blonde Zombie high school friends have been conjured in my imagination. I live in front of a cemetery, remember.

Is it snowing there? It was cold here when I woke up and I wore a sweatshirt to work. But I was sweating by the time I made it to my office.
last day of "work" for the year, woo-hoo!
― Ms Misery (MsMisery), Thursday, 21 December 2006 16:08 (seventeen years ago) link
No snow - just really REALLY cold rain. The temperature is hovering right around the freezing point, I think, so the roads could get slippery. Nasty.
But yay for the last work day of the year for you!!!! A. has to go in next week Wed.-Friday, but it will be scary quiet with all the students and most of the faculty and staff gone. I almost envy that.

there should be an ilx union of university workers.

The ice storm I remember best was the nice of the final test of my first semester at St. Kate's (library school) - in 1995 this was. Scariest drive home to Northfield ever.
Working in academia = pretty awesome, unless the college you're working at has financial troubles (I did that once; it sucked). ILX union... I'd like to see the meetings for that organization.

I'm sitting down here in my office, A. isn't home so I could be wrapping stuff for him, but no, I'm procrastinating. Because I'm terrible at it!
suzy, I need your help!

suzy, you could be the non-robotic Martha Stewart. In a good way.
I did get inspired and wrap several things, and I helped J. wrap a present. If there's anything that makes me appreciate doing something I'm bad at by myself, it's when I have to try to herd a 4 year old through the process... Still, I fear you wouldn't approve of the job I've done, suzy.

Actually, that is part of the beauty of selling liquor. Very few kids, almost no returns, and everyone is happy when they leave.
All that being said, I wouldn't take J. into your store on a bet. Some parents are nuts.
